[sdiy] My next oscilloscope...

[Justin Owen]

Hello all,

My Owon PDS 5022S 25MHz is on the way out - screen is slowly dying and I'd like to replace it with something better anyway so it's 'scope recommendation time again!

What I'd like:

- 3-4x Channels - increasingly needing to view 2x Inputs & 1x Output or Input, CV, Output, etc
- Storage for checking low frequency stuff
- Much better screen resolution - so not every single waveform looks slightly pixelated - especially when I zoom in
- Better measurement resolution - e.g. the multimeter function, which I use all the time, is limited to 0.08V increments
- Good price - I'm a lone operator on a tight budget - not a tech startup with a millionaire investor

Working in analogue/cv/audio domain - but am doing some stuff that is requiring a higher level of accuracy/clarity than the Owon was giving me.

So firstly - recommendations for something that might be suitable and secondly since I'm after 3x channels - might I be better off spending my money on a budget 2x CH and a decent 1x CH?

Any advice - much appreciated.

Ta,

/ J
